I would not be --
Whatever strata of Iniquity
My Nature underlie --
Truth is good Health -- and Safety, and the Sky.
(The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson)

But vanquished her with my defeat

Riches and Name and Realm --

Before Identity was leased.

Your secret, perched in ecstasy
Defies imprisonment!
